MLGF Presents...



So, um, hell yeah, St. Vincent's going to be in Santa Barbara in February! Phosphorescent and Bon Iver in March! And dear Frank Turner, too! Not to mention fabulous Oxnard indiepop sensations Maria!

And that kid said there was absolutely no music scene in Santa Barbara... Not that it's L.A. or anything, but that kid's obviously never been to Biko, or to Muddy Waters. Spending too much time on DP listening to "Rebelution" every night will do crazy things to a person, I guess.

I have been somewhat disappointed by UCSB's actual concert series, because last year they got Busdriver, Man Man, Starlight Mints, Aqueduct and others to come play shows on campus. This year, a lot more time seems to be devoted to screamo... not that, uh, there's anything wrong with that, of course...
